Hi Martin,
Don't think there's anyway to share a com port, but there are a few
possible
solutions
A) The xpl wm918 app could be given an internal web server to replicate
what
your software does (would take sometime)
B) Write an asp.dll (if you have an iis web server available) that displays
the globals in a web page in the format you need
C) If you had some spare com ports and a null modem cable the xpl wm918
could easily be modifed to echo the packets to the app
E.g. wm918 on com1, xpl app listens on com1, it also echos all packets to
com2, this passes down the null modem cable to com3 where the software is
listening
Regards
Tony
